It'll be a few more days for pictures. It's beautiful here but let's just say they're not connected. Cell service and internet access are extremely limited. Good thing I'm only here for a few days or I'd probably lose my mind. :-)

I was a bit disappointed to find out that they now have speed limits in Montana but seriously, who can drive 70 mph on a winding, mountain-side two-lane highway and live to tell about it? Based upon the all of the skid marks that I saw, many have tried. On my way, I think I found the most densely populated area in Montana ... it was a Subway at the intersection of Hwys 200 & 28. I think all residents of the surrounding towns meet there for lunch and I happened to arrive just after noon. Once I got to the park, we went on a 3-1/2 mile hike at Logan Pass. The elevation was 6,600 feet so it was exhausting but the view was amazing.

Best coffee from a road side espresso stand so far (and trust me, I've tried quite a few with all this driving) ... Devo's Daily Dose in Coeur d'Alene

You know you're staying in a classy hotel ... when the lamps are glued to the table.

Hope everyone is doing well!
